seismic refraction analysis
Mediante unos sensores similares a un sismógrafo, denominados geófonos, se recogen las ondas refractadas, las únicas que nos interesan, cuyas vibraciones se traducen en impulsos eléctricos reflejados en un osciloscopio para su estudio.
De todas las ondas emitidas y refractadas se señala y utiliza la primera llegada de las más rápidas, denominadas primarias u ondas P obteniéndose así una representación gráfica de espacio - tiempo a la que se llama dromocrona.
